Data Domain Boost
EMC Data Domain Boost software delivers an advanced level of integration with backup applications and database utilities, enhancing performance and ease of use. It is supported on the following EMC Data Domain deduplication storage systems:
- Data Domain DD160
- Data Domain DD2200
- Data Domain DD2500
- Data Domain DD4200
- Data Domain DD4500
- Data Domain DD7200
- Data Domain DD990
Rather than sending all data to the Data Domain system for deduplication processes, DD Boost enables the backup server or application client to send only unique data segments across the network to the Data Domain system. This reduces the amount of data transferred over the network by 80 to 99 percent. The Data Domain Boost software provides:
- Faster, More Efficient Backup: Distributes parts of the deduplication process to backup server or application client - 50% faster backups and up to 99% less network bandwidth required.
- Simplified Disaster Recovery: Enables application to control Data Domain replication process with full catalog awareness.
- Advanced Load Balancing and Failover: Aggregates transport links for transparent load balancing and automatic link failover.
